Day 11 - Thirty Days

Day 11 - Favorite TV shows

It's Thursday. Is it 9pm yet? Did you see last week's episode?! Holy cow!!!

 

I also enjoy the Law and Order shows, and just started watching reruns of Bones. Love Supernatural, but I tend to catch up on that over the summer when other things are in reruns. When all else fails, a syndicated episode of any of the Star Trek series' will do just fine. :)

Day 10 - Thirty Days

Day 10 - Something you're afraid of

Heights. Deathly afraid.

I took this photo from atop the Hoover Dam, looking West, in 2006. I think I recall holding the camera over my head and closing my eyes, hoping that I got a pic worth keeping. I knew I'd probably never be there again and it was my one chance. You laugh, but at my old church? I wouldn't even go up in the balcony.

Day 9 - Thirty Days

Day 9 - A picture of your friends

This is a cop out. Sort of. I'm afraid I'll leave someone out, so I'm using this photo I found at Facebook. Early to mid-70's (no later than 1974 or early '75). We were besties in Middle School and here we are all graduated or possibly about to be.

Joanne, Me, Ellen.

After almost forty years we found each other again. :)

Days 7 & 8 - Thirty Days

Give or take a couple of months. You know what they say about good intentions.

Day 7 - Favorite movies

I think is the one that stumped me last time. We are not movie-goers. We work long hours, usually odd hours, and by the time the weekend comes we don't feel like bothering to go out. Plus there are all my other distractions - the internet, digital scrapping, writing (on rare occasions any more), being a chauffeur to a carload of teenage girls ... you see where I'm going with this.

The hubby has his list of about 5 favorites (give or take a few dozen) that we watch over and over and ... No, let me rephrase that. HE watches them over and over and over while I call out supportive things from my chair at the pc. The Ten Commandments, The Great Escape, Field of Dreams, The Natural, any of the Harry Potter series, Sweeney Todd, Star Wars (any of them usually in succession), Star Trek (see previous comment) .... the list goes on and on, just like Rose's heart does in the Titanic theme song. Yes yes, he watches that one too even though we all know how it ends. (Psst, the ship sinks!)

The one that I didn't name is one that I will always stop and sit for. We've watched it so many times that my Marine Son and I were texting each other lines from it just this week.

"There's no crying in baseball!" "Use your head. It's that thing thee feet above your ass." "Anybody ever tell you you look like a penis with a little hat?" "Mule!" "Nag!"

Oh the hours we could spend (and did, while my hubby was in ICU last fall) tossing movie lines back and forth. Both sons, my daughter, and me. Good times!

"A League of Their Own". Classic Madonna, Rosie O'Donnell, Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, and best supporting roll ever - Jon Lovitz.

Go. Watch!

Day 8 - A place you've traveled to

I can't pick a favorite. Toronto, NYC, Jamaica, San Francisco, Los Angeles, our cross country trip from L.A. to Miami in 2006. That last one included Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Roswell New Mexico, The Alamo, New Orleans ...

I'm ready to go again, just let me pack a bag.

Thought for the day, week, month ...

A dear friend shared this today on Facebook, I'll be adding it to the inside cover of the prayer journal I am making. :)


So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10

She, and the verse, were there just when I needed them. God is good like that, you know?

I've been absent from here and I stopped my daily posts. Illness, minor injury, and some other stressful things have had me down but I'll be back soon.

Be blessed. <3
